Discuss Arguments for and Against the View That all Prisoners should have the Right to Education and Reach a Conclusion of Your Own

Abstract

This essay mainly discusses the topic that all of prisoners should have the right to education. This essay will show two different arguments about this topic. On the one hand, Vorhaus (2014) and Easton (2022) advocate that all prisoners ought to have the right to education and the education for prisoners does benefit prisoners themselves and contribute to the society. On the other hand, Austin (2017) proposes that the benefit of education to some prisoners is subtle and not all prisoners request the education in prison. From my own viewpoint, all prisoners should have the right to education and the prison education is beneficial and necessary for prisoners.
